You mean the leadership that rescued America when Bush took the country to its financial grave.

That's the Democrat plan. Get tax raises on the rich but don't require any sacrifices from their own shiftless, deadbeat constituents.

This is what I think too. The Republicans should abstain in most votes for the next two years and let Obama own his recession 100%. This country needs to get worse before it has any hope of getting better.

Exactly. The producers and workers of this country are to be destroyed and robbed, squeezed to death but the non-producers will be highly rewarded --- which will only create a much larger class of non-productive.

In 4 years, the much larger class of government dependents will also vote again. And they'll vote for the candidate that promises the most handouts.

Um, the treasonous repub congress is not yet out of the picture. If and when they get out of the way, only then will Obama and the dems own anything.
Remember the republican mantra "government doesn't create jobs"? So you as a right-winger would not expect him to do so.

LOL, just don't vote,... Republican should try to beat Obama's golf record. How many times did he golf?

So Obama likes golfing and it "bothers" you? And this is all you can come up with?
Obama spends more time working than Bush

But it was Obama himself who promised he would create millions and millions of jobs -- and fix the economy --- so it's time for him to do so. He needs his feet held to the fire -- he's the one with the big promises that said he could do it -- or rather said "si se puede". Are you saying he cannot?

I'll file this alongside your equally astute pre-election analysis.

Correct, I'll put money on the fact that President Smugmug won't create any jobs, or do anything productive during his second term (regardless of opposition). Obama just wanted to continue basqueing in the limelight. This has nothing to do with job creation or betterment of the takers who voted for him. This is about Obamas' ego, pure and simple.
Hence: "I like the name Obama Care". quoted from his last debate with Romney.
